Following the performance stay for an exclusive talkback with Aaron Burns, director of the upcoming film Jimmy. Led by our production’s George Bailey Matt Schufrieder, you’ll hear how the famous film transformed Jimmy Stewart’s life. Aaron will share details on how the movie quickly went from concept to completion plus you’ll be among the first to see the film’s official teaser trailer!
Academy Award® in hand, James Stewart sits alone in his lavish Hollywood home. With war clouds hovering, the son and grandson of military heroes enlists in the U.S. Army Air Corps. A combat pilot and squadron commander, Jimmy leads men from all walks of life into some of the war’s fiercest fighting. Amid the unbearable loss of his men, Jimmy returns home a hero—but a broken man.
Unwilling to return to his life in Hollywood, he wallows in his small hometown—until his old friend Frank Capra calls with a proposal: Would Jimmy be interested in playing a broken man saved by an angel in a Christmas movie? With the blessing of his father and the encouragement of a co-star, Jimmy Stewart links arms with George Bailey in a heartfelt search for hope and redemption.
From Burns & Co. Studios and executive producer Kelly Stewart-Harcourt comes JIMMY, opening in theaters nationwide November 6, 2026. Starring KJ Apa and an incredible ensemble cast, JIMMY is directed by Aaron Burns from a script by Justin Strawhand.
Jimmy Stewart came home from war lost. It’s a Wonderful Life found him.
“Midway upon the journey of our life, I found myself within a forest dark, for the straightforward pathway had been lost.”
And so we all begin—in darkness.
Join Dante on his most famous journey through the depths of hell, levels upon levels of purgatory, finally discovering the light and glory of paradise. You will find terror in the wild beasts he meets along the way; and only moments later great hope at the strong woman, Beatrice, who leads him always upwards.
This contemporary staged performances of one of the most epic stories of the western world is an immersive, multi-dimensional production that leads you into Dante’s universe. Returning to the stage for the 4th year, this year’s production.
